Oscar Delp’s NFL Draft Potential
Oscar Delp’s production will turn some away at the surface level; the Georgia TE has never eclipsed 300 yards or four touchdowns in a given season, and has just 10 catches in seven games in 2025. But for Delp’s evaluation, you have to dive below the raw numbers and look at his usage and ability.
Delp is invaluable in utility roles, which is one reason the Bulldogs pull him out of the receiving phase so often. Despite being a bit underweight at 6’5″, 245 pounds, Delp is a truly elite pass protector with impeccable footwork, angle IQ, leverage acquisition, and hand usage.
Meanwhile, he’s a ranged assassin in the running game who can lead block in space and reach landmarks with his speed, or sledge defensive ends out of exterior gaps 1-on-1 with his driving power and physicality.
Delp’s sky-high floor as a blocker gives him immense inbuilt security as a 2026 NFL Draft prospect, but there are flashes of receiving upside in a limited sample, too. Delp is a truly elite athlete with instant explosiveness upfield on designed RAC plays, and he can churn through contact with urgent, forceful leg drive.
And while his route running still needs additional refinement, he’s shown he can use his explosiveness and throttle control to attack second-level voids and make smooth body-control grabs.
There’s a certain type of TE that gives offenses endless formation flexibility, and Delp is that kind of TE. He’s an asset in the ground game right away, and can grow to become a weapon on designed RAC and seam plays.
